We engaged Tiffin group to complete an internal insulation project for us, along with a collection of other smaller property maintenance jobs. The “Tiffin difference” was immediately noticeable from the polite and courteous approach adopted by all members from the team. For us, that mattered a lot. We a young baby and the team were unfailingly mindful of that throughout the project which lasted several weeks. The work was carried out to a high standard. As with all major projects we did draw up a snagging list but all items were addressed to our satisfaction. What was most pleasing was that we paid the price we had been quoted. There was no “Gotcha” pricing at the end despite a couple of modifications to the original RFQ we provided. If I had any criticism to offer it would be that some things took longer to sort than we had expected but, on the list of criticisms to be levelled at a construction firm, this is one thing that I found was manageable given all the other positives. We were left with a strong sense that Robert and the team were professional and reliable in their approach. We wil be using Tiffin Group for our next project.

The first time I used Robert Tiffin was by email for advice about the condition of a garden wall. He responded with a request for pictures from which he went on to produce a clear, helpful response suggesting the wall was sound and any work needed would be cosmetic. He made no charge for this advice. Based on this experience, I asked him to carry out repair work to the walls, roof and chimney of our property. After inspection, he advised me that the roof and chimney were sound and that pointing would resolve the problems, saving me considerable unnecessary costs. I was delighted to discover he was absolutely right in his diagnosis. On the third occasion, my daughter required a survey of mould on the interior walls of her home. Again, Robert Tiffin carried out a thorough inspection and prepared a comprehensive report. Robert Tiffin is helpful and professional. His advice is sound and he will save you money where he can. Not surprisingly, the people he employs are also hard working and professional. Schedules are maintained and when work is completed everywhere is left clean and tidy. I have no hesitation in recommending them.

Ecotiffin responded quickly to our email enquiry about a damaged garage wall. Robert examined the wall, listened to our concerns and made a thorough assessment of the problem. He reassured us about the condition of the wall and advised us against carrying out unnecessary work. Within a few days of his visit, Robert sent us a comprehensive report. He followed this up with sensible advice about steps to take should planned building work be carried out adjacent to the wall. We were very pleased with the advice he gave us.

I have known Robert Tiffin for 40 years or so and his company has done a lot of work for me during that time. In 1984 I bought a semi-derelict listed house in Rickmansworth. It needed a complete refurbishment including a large outbreak of dry-rot and various damp and woodworm problems. Tiffins carried out all the specialist work (I did a lot of the standard stuff myself due to limited funds) and this work was carried out well and there has been no recurring problems. It is a very old building and quite delicate and so there have been other problems over the years (particularly with damp issues) and Tiffins has also remedied all these very well. In 2013 Tiffins demolished the garage and built a new, bigger building that complied with Listed issues, Conservation area and so on. The work was high quality. I also own a building in Holland Park and recently there was a very bad outbreak of dry rot. The building is approx 100 years old and the rot was quite bad covering the whole of the front wall. The ground floor is a commercial office with approx 16 people working in it. They had to be happy and I didn't want them to move out while the work was carried out. Tiffins developed a plan that involved a false (external) wall across and inside the front wall which allowed the tenant to carry on working while the work was carried out. After some issues with scheduling the work at short notice the repairs were carried out very well and my tenants didn't complain! Roberts advice on how to present the problem to my insurance company also resulted in a successful insurance claim. Robert and Tiffins people are very good a identifying the problems with buildings (often the problem with this kind of work is working out what the real problem is in the first place) and I have never known him to get it wrong.

Ecotiffin sorted out my damp problem in an outbuilding, insulated and decorated it, turning it into a pleasant and very usable storeroom. Their knowledge and experience inspired confidence, and I felt that I was given honest advice about the most sensible way to pursue this project, without wasting money unnecessarily.

They were a pleasure to have in the house. So polite and lovely. Robert was always on the end of the phone and nothing was ever a hassle or a problem. Likewise, his builder- Jerry- was so diligent and lovely to have around. They worked so hard as a team and did not leave our premises until we were 100% happy. We would recommend them without a shadow of a doubt. 100% reliable and trustworthy and a pleasure to work with fantastic results.

Wish I'd contacted EcoTiffin sooner

Having moved into a 1940's north facing bungalow a few years back, the front bedrooms located over a cellar were incredibly cold and heating bills high. Previous builders had not improved the situation, so having seen an ad in a local publication in the summer, I finally got around to contacting Robert in December 16. I wish I had done it sooner. His advice was sound and sensible and the price fair. The work carried out in Feb 17. The team he used to re-insulate the awkward shaped loft, introduce proper ventilation at eaves and roof ridge, as well as the team he used to insulate the cellar with sprayed foam, were professional, hardworking and the tidiest I have come across! Robert arranged everything and kept me in the loop throughout. Since the work was completed there has definitely been a marked improvement in temperature. I have no hesitation in recommending EcoTiffin and will definitely use them for any future building project.

Tiffin was hired by us because Robert Tiffin was both knowledgeable about the issues we wanted resolved and came up with good ideas to solve them. These issues included rotted timbers, a leaky flat roof, spalled brickwork and inadequate guttering on a 90 year old house. David, the man in charge on site, was excellent both in communicating with us, in the quality of his workmanship and his drive to get the job done properly. We would use them again if needed.
